- 1:13SPEAKER_01: This works out for everybody, and then you get a break.
- 1:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:16SPEAKER_01: From who?
- 1:18SPEAKER_01: My boyfriend that I don't want a break from?
- 1:19SPEAKER_01: Uh, right now.
- 1:21SPEAKER_01: You know, it's early.
- 1:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:23SPEAKER_01: All right.
- 1:23SPEAKER_02: What wait, what now?
- 1:24SPEAKER_02: What happened at your house with your dog?
- 1:26SPEAKER_02: I oh, geez, hang on a second.
- 1:28SPEAKER_02: I gotta push this button.
- 1:29SPEAKER_02: I'm sorry.
- 1:29SPEAKER_02: Go ahead.
- 1:30SPEAKER_00: So my mother-in-law is driving me absolutely crazy.
- 1:33SPEAKER_00: Um, he loves coming over to see her grandson, which of course I have no problem with, but every time she visits, she expects us to board our dog.
- 1:41SPEAKER_00: She pretty much hates dogs and thinks they're dirty.
- 1:43SPEAKER_00: Like sometimes he won't even sit on our couch because he knows our dog lays on it.
- 1:47SPEAKER_00: The stupidest part is our dog's like 12 pounds.
- 1:50SPEAKER_00: He's basically a fuzzy little throw pillow.
- 1:53SPEAKER_00: Like, I don't mind taking him to doggy daycare if he's just stopping by for an afternoon.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: But when he stays for a whole weekend, she expects us to board him the entire time.
- 2:01SPEAKER_00: And of course, she doesn't offer to pay for it.
- 2:04SPEAKER_00: Got into like this huge fight with my husband because I finally told him next time I'd rather just take the dog and stay at my sister's house while his mom visits.
- 2:11SPEAKER_00: And he got upset because he wants us all together.
- 2:14SPEAKER_00: But it's like our dog lives here, you know, his mom's the guest.
- 2:17SPEAKER_00: I just don't think it's fair that our whole house has to revolve around his mom disliking dogs.
- 2:23SPEAKER_03: Also, the whole thing about, oh, I can take the dog to doggy daycare if it's just like an afternoon drop-in.
- 2:29SPEAKER_03: No, I I already am a mom who is trying to get everything together for a kid, keep the household together.
- 2:36SPEAKER_03: So for me to have to go drop a dog at doggy daycare, go pick them up, because you you have the hours that you can and can't pick them up, and then I have to pay for that.
- 2:45SPEAKER_03: No, this is our family, this is part of our family.
- 2:48SPEAKER_03: You're you're not calling the shots with what goes on under my roof.
- 2:51SPEAKER_03: I agree.
- 2:52SPEAKER_03: Absolutely not.
- 2:53SPEAKER_02: I mean, I'm sorry if she can't adjust to it.
- 2:54SPEAKER_02: There's something called a hotel.
- 2:56SPEAKER_03: Exactly.
- 2:56SPEAKER_03: And you can stop right, you can stop in and you can stop in for a couple hours and you can deal with the dog.
- 3:01SPEAKER_02: I mean, it sounds like mom might either live in Rochester or Buffalo.
- 3:04SPEAKER_02: Like it doesn't sound like she's coming in from California, but you know, it just seems like, you know, because if you can do drop-ins, you're close enough by.
- 3:12SPEAKER_03: Right, exactly.
- 3:12SPEAKER_03: Like a I'm sure a Rochester.
- 3:14SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 3:14SPEAKER_03: But yes, hotel for you.
- 3:16SPEAKER_02: Yeah.
- 3:17SPEAKER_02: And Fluffy is But do you know what the her son has to sit has to be the one to tell her.
- 3:22SPEAKER_02: She is the one that has to grow the set and be like, Mom, look, I'm sorry.
- 3:25SPEAKER_02: This is our house.
- 3:26SPEAKER_02: We have Fluffy.
- 3:28SPEAKER_02: And uh and I understand, you know, you're not really into dogs.
- 3:31SPEAKER_02: And I I look, I have it was a different situation.
- 3:34SPEAKER_02: So Auntie R.
- 3:36SPEAKER_02: I P Auntie.
- 3:37SPEAKER_02: We've discovered that yes.

- 3:53SPEAKER_02: Yeah, he just he he felt that was, you know.

- 4:03SPEAKER_03: I before junior, I was kind of meh and dogs.

- 4:07SPEAKER_03: But now it's and and this is I think the bottom line is this is my house.

- 4:13SPEAKER_02: And I think he has to say it.
- 4:15SPEAKER_02: Yes.
- 4:15SPEAKER_02: Or make the statement.
- 4:17SPEAKER_02: I loved her idea of I'll grab the dog and go to my mom's or her sister's house.
